The Wizard

[Rossr]

Ok so it's silly but I call this knife and sheath the wizard.  I forged the knife and then did my best at a face in the antler crown.  Then decided to try to copy that in leather carving.  Kinda has a robe hood on both so struck me as a wizard that I found hiding in the antler and leather. Anyway just thought I'd share

Looks great! I like the way you thematically tied the knife to the sheath. Very good.

I’m wondering, did you line the knife sheath?

I ask because I noticed this piece.

Thanks and Yes I lined it with thin veg tan maybe 2 ounce didn't measure it just seemed good.  I just lined the front side didnt bother on the back.

The main sheath is chestnut skirting Wickett and Craig, so pre died. Darker some with Skidmores leather cream I used on it. The liner is just natural veg tan. Thanks for the kind words.
